Let's just call it delish bowl. I've seen these before on Tastespotting and thought how wonderful and colorful. What a way to brighten up the senses with all these colors beaming in front of you. I do eat a lot of sushi here and am not the greatest at creating that perfect roll. So I found this much easier. Plus you can add whatever you fancy, no matter the size. Right now I'm going through an avocado craving--so far lasting now into two weeks, and as I type this I want to make another sushi bowl with fresh uni. Oh that sounds so good. Finding fresh uni on cape cod is hard, you wouldn't think so since cape cod is on the ocean. But it is. The last place I had really fresh and tasty uni was in NYC. What would you add to your sushi bowl? I love to hear what type of sushi others love-I'm always up for trying new sushi.

Nice colors, composition... but is that smoked salmon? If it is, you can't call it sushi, bowl or no bowl ;)

Btw, I think the reason why you can't get Uni in Cape Caaaaad is because the water is too cold.

Where I grew up (Indonesia), I used to see Uni and sea cucumber while swimming around. Uni always scares me, because if you happen to step on it (they tend to gather by shoreline) your feet will get swollen, like being stung by 50 bees...

Looks great!! I love Japanese food and sushi is my favourite part of the Japanese food experience. How about adding some toasted panko crumbs on top for some crunch? Black sesame seeds would look pretty too. I must give uni a try soon!

Oh, yes! If I can get sushi w/o mutilating a poor sheet of nori, then I'll jump in the bowl! This looks wonderful - where do you get your raw salmon? Being so far from either coast, I'm not sure about finding good quality (much less at a reasonable price). But then again, I only need a bit as this has so much other good stuff, too!

Dawn- so glad to see this. I have never seen them on Tastespotting (whats up with that since I am always on there drooling). This is such a great idea. I lvoe sushi and sometimes I just dont feel like rolling it. Perfect!
